Product Description
Rocktron
Journey into a land where distortion rules, and the opportunity to slay the dragon will allow you to reap incredible tonal rewards! Rocktron's Silver Dragon is a unique distortion unit that combines the best of both worlds - tube and analog solid state distortion! For that tube sound you love, the Silver Dragon rams a 12AX7. Here is where you AWAKEN the beast and drive the tube sound.
Product Overview and Specifications
Silver Dragon


Yes, the control is actually called "Awaken". SHREIK controls the treble while ROAR provides low end control. FIRE handles the initial distortion drive level of the 12AX7.The second made, called SLAYER, features a mixed-in combination of the 12AX7 distortion with the solid state distortion driving the tube together.


Slayer INTENSITY changes the character, sustain and attack properties, which together enhance articulation. BREATH control is for the symmetry of the solid state distortion which affects the "feel" of the distortion. Output level control is also provided.


You'll be hard pressed to find a better distortion device than the Silver Dragon, and you'll have the ability to cross over into both worlds - tube and solid state. This is a unique stomp box format that utilizes a 13-Volt AC adaptor to drive the beast. The Silver Dragon allows you to have three modes - Clean, Crunch and Lead. Hints and tips provided in the instruction manual help you take advantage of the wide range of voicings, and define "character" and "feel" found in many expensive tube amplifiers

What more do you need than a tube-driven, high-output distortion pedal that cleans up nicely?

I mean really, what else do you need? I have various delay pedals and my seymour duncan tweak fuzz (also gets 2 big thumbs way up), but this distortion pedal will turn your amp into everything you would ever need in terms of awesome output that cleans up great. The initial distortion (Awaken) is the primary "channel" on this pedal and has in more simplified terms, a main, treble, and bass control, which all blend to make some sick distortions. Slayer mode is beyond words - you just have to play on it to understand... it's I guess sort of an attack gate that in simplified terms means it blends your notes/strumming together beautifully because it depends how you attack the strings....its so cool... definitly a MUST have for an amp with relatively no distortion on it (i have a fender 4/10 deville 65w tube...the thing is a frikkin beast but lacks in the distortion/high gain market...and this thing makes it ROAR...btw, ive never turned that amp past like 3 or 4 because it is so frighteningly loud...now its even worse lol)

If you don't have a tube amp (like me), you need this pedal. You'll get the tube sound you desire, whether you play metal or classic rock. Plus, the solid state distortion is excellent. And unlike other distortion pedals in the price range, this one preserves low end beautifully. Un-be-freakin-lievable!!!
